When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel)

Chapter 1668 Family Heirloom

As time ticked away, Nicholas sat in the car, but Jocelyn still hadn't replied to his message.

Feeling inexplicably irritable, he tugged at his tie.

Another ten minutes passed. Seeing that his message seemed to have disappeared into the void, he couldn't help but dial Jocelyn's number.

The call went through, but all he got was the cold voice of the automated service: "Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

Nicholas felt even more stifled. He tossed his phone aside and instructed the driver to start the car.

The driver asked, "Mr. Rainsworth, where are we going?"

"I don't know. Just drive around," Nicholas replied.

"Yes."

The car pulled out of the garage. Outside, it was drizzling.
